Has anyone ever made a more conventional brake/clutch lever set that will fit the HD controls on the S2?
I've always ridden with my three outer fingers on the brake lever, leaving my thumb and forefinger to control the throttle. On the S2 I have to use forefinger and middle finger on the brake because of the shape of the lever.
I've got used to it over the years but I still find throttle control on down changes tricky + it's very difficult to operate the right hand indicator button without rolling off the throttle - normally the opposite of what I want to do (UK roads).

Am I alone in this or I have I just answered my own question re overtaking and driving on the left?
